Moving off
With the engine running, to move off from position P:
☞ it is essential to press the
brake pedal to exit position P,
☞ select function R, D or M, then
gradually release the pressureon the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
Y ou can also move off from position N:
☞ release the handbrake, with yourfoot on the brake
☞ select function R, D or M, then
gradually release the pressureon the brake pedal; the vehicle
moves off immediately.
W ARNING
When the engine is at idle, brakesnot applied, if function R, D or Mis
selected the vehicle moves evenwithout the accelerator being pres-sed. For this reason, do not leave chil- dren unsupervised inside thevehicle, with the engine running. When maintenance operations need to be carried out with the engine run-ning, apply the handbrake and selectposition P.
"PORSCHE TIPTRONIC SYSTEM" AUTOMATIC GEARBOX The four speed automaticgearbox offers a choice between the comfort of inte-
gral automatic operation , enhanced by a snowprogramme, or the pleasure of
manual gear changing .
Gear selection gate ☞ Move the lever in the gate to select a function. Once the function is selected, the corresponding indicator light appears on
the instrument panel display.

Automatic operation Automatic changing of the four
gears :
☞ select function Din the gate.
The gearbox always selects the most suitable gear according to the follo-wing parameters: - the style of driving,
- the road profile,
- the vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in auto-adaptive mode, without anyaction on your part.
W ARNING
Never select function Nwhen the
vehicle is moving. Never select functions Por Runless
the vehicle is stationary.Never change between functions to optimise braking on a slippery surface. Notes For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kickdown). The gear-box will automatically change downor maintain the gear selected untilmaximum engine speed is reached. When braking, the gearbox will auto- matically change down in order to
provide efficient engine braking. If you take your foot off the accelera-
tor suddenly, the gearbox will notchange to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.
Snow programme In addition to the auto-adaptive pro- gramme, there is a special programme. The programme is displayed on the instrument panel screen. This programme improves starting
and drive when traction is poor. ☞ Press button Wonce the vehicle
has been started and function D
selected.
The gearbox adapts to driving on slippery roads. Note: you can return to the auto-
adaptive programme at any time. ☞ Press button Wagain to switch
off the programme you are in. Manual operation Manual changing of the
four gears:
☞ select function Min the gate,
☞ push the lever to the +sign to

Y ou can change from position D(dri-
ving in automatic mode) to position M (driving in manual mode) at any
time. Note It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speedand engine speed permit. If they donot, the vehicle will operate tempora-rily in automatic mode. When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearboxautomatically selects gear M1.
Programme W(snow) does not ope-
rate in manual mode.

ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ABS with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBFD) increases thestability and manoeuvrability of yourvehicle, particularly on poor or slip-pery road surfaces. Note: when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are approved. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.

The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, byacting on the brakes of the drivewheels and on the engine. It alsoallows the directional stability of thevehicle to be improved on accelera-tion.
Operation of the ASR systemWhen this system is opera- ting, this light flashes.
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) This system is linked with and com-
plements the ABS. Disarming the ASR system In exceptional conditions (starting the vehicle when stuck in mud, on
snow, on unstable ground ... ), it may
prove useful to disarm the ASR sys-tem to allow the wheels to skid andregain grip. ☞
Press switch Ain the centre of
the fascia panel.
The indicator light on the switch and the warning light
come on: the ASR systemwill no longer act on theoperation of the engine orthe brakes. It will come into operation again: ☞
automatically above 20 mph (30 km/h),
☞ manually when the switch ispressed again.
Operating check When a malfunction of thesystem occurs, the warninglight on the instrument panelcomes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to havethe system checked.

Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrationsof the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
The operation of the sys- tem is ensured to theextent to which therecommendations of themanufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and wheel rims),the braking components, the elec-tronic components and the assem-bly and repair procedures withinthe PEUGEOT network are obser-ved. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Illumination of this warning light indicates a malfunctionof the electronic brake forcedistribution, which cancause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.

AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions.They work in conjunction with theseat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thresholdis reached, the air bags inflate ins-tantly and protect the occupants ofthe vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are notserious, for which the seat belt is suf-ficient to ensure maximum protec-
tion. The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obs-tacle and the speed of the vehicle atthe moment of the collision. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the passen-ger air bag is disarmed. Front air bag fault
If this warning light comes on on the instrument panel,
contact a PEUGEOT dealerto have the system chec-ked. Disarming the passenger air bag*
To
ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas- senger air bag when you install arear-facing child seat on the frontpassenger seat. ☞ Remove the ignition key, insert it into the passenger air bag switch1located between the two front
seats and turn it to the "OFF"
position.
☞ The air bag warning light on theinstrument panel is lit throughoutthe disarming process.

In the
"OFF" position, the passenger
air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact. As soon as you remove the rear- facing child seat from the front pas-senger seat, turn the air bag switchto the "ON"position, to arm the air
bag and thus ensure the safety ofyour passenger in an impact. Operating check This is confirmed by the light on the instrument panel. If the passenger air bag is armed (passenger air bag switch in the"ON" position), the indicator light
comes on for six seconds when theignition is switched on.
If the passenger air bag isdisarmed (passenger airbag switch in the "OFF"
position), the indicator light
remains on. In all cases, if the light flashes,
contact your PEUGEOT dealer. SIDE AIR BAGS* The side air bags are incorporated into the front seat backs on the door side. They are deployed independently of
each other, on whichever side thecollision occurs. Operating check This is confirmed by an indicator light on the instrument panel.
If this indicator light comeson, contact a PEUGEOTdealer to have the systemchecked.
